I know that a few things need to be done to get it to compile and install (i.e., remove the battery applet from the gnomecore build, and remove gnumeric and gtop from the gnome build), but even after everything else "successfully" installs, when I try and run gnome-session from .xinitrx or .xsession with startx, it takes a loooooooooong tiiiiiiiime to start up. The only clues I have as to problems are that I get an error about my locale not being supported in .xsession-errors (and every time I type anything in ETerm), and gnome-smproxy seems to core-dump... Also, is anyone working on a port of gdm (the GNOME desktop/login manager)?

Installation went OK too, except that it won't accept the license key that came with the software and there's absolutely no support contact address or phone number anywhere in the printed documentation or on the CDs or on the web site. Do any of you know which NICs are supported by Tru64? I'm having no luck with the non-DEC 21140 card that's in the machine currently. tu0: no SROM info for selected media Web searching seems to indicate that only DEC brand NICs are supported, and I can't even find anybody that stocks them. The Compaq/DEC web sites don't even have a list of supported hardware that I can find. *Sigh.* If you're ever feeling negative about FreeBSD, just go try installing any commercial Unix.

You can either fix them or shut them up. Fixing them is greatly preferreable because fixing them is rather expensive (the app traps into the kernel, which fixes up the access). See the uac(1) man page. If you want to fix them, use uac -s & run gdb on the app. If you just want to shut up the warning, use uac -p. As to why you see them on FreeBSD & not linux; I think some linux distros may come with uac printing turned off...

(Yes, I deeply understand how much of a Bad Thing unaligned accesses are, but when I can't get emacs to run without the screen being fried by warning messages I'm unlikely to hack code to fix them...)

I recently installed FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE on my PC164. So far, I've been very impressed. I built XFree86 3.3.6 from the ports collection, and it works beautifully with my S3/ViRGE video card. Here are the details of some problems I've come across with various things: 1) I'm using an original SB16 ISA-PnP card with "device pcm" in my kernel config file. My kernel is built specifically for EB/PC164. It gets probed perfectly on boot, very impressive. My problem is with playing mp3's. Both xmms and mpg123q exhibit a random tendency to play loud static. If a song starts ok, it will play fine in its entirety. However sometimes when starting a song, loud static will be heard. Repeating the process will get the song to play fine, but I was wondering... Might there be a problem with the pcm/sbc driver corrupting isa dma? Or something more sinister? I'm listening to mp3's right now, so it does work, only sometimes at random I get loud static when a song starts. Very odd. This is a dual-boot machine, I also have alpha/linux installed and it does not exhibit this problem. 2) I've installed emacs 19 from the ports collection. The X version works fine, but running "emacs -nw" causes the status bar to be indented a quarter way across the screen, causing it to wrap around to the next line, totally corrupting the screen and making emacs unusable. Ctrl-L doesn't fix the problem. Anyone else see this? 3) The S/key calculator /usr/bin/key is broken. It gives totally wrong answers. It's probably a 64-bit issue, easily fixable in the source, but I just wanted to report it. "opiekey -4" on the other hand works fine, so it isn't a complete loss. That's all for now, I'll report more observations as I come across them. -Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-alpha Mon Apr 10 17:18:13 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Received: from zippy.cdrom.com (zippy.cdrom.com [204.216.27.228]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4518937B541 for ; Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:18:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jkh@zippy.cdrom.com) Received: from zippy.cdrom.com (jkh@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by zippy.cdrom.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA01254; Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:19:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jkh@zippy.cdrom.com) To: Mark Abene Cc: freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: some observed problems after new install In-reply-to: Your message of "Mon, 10 Apr 2000 19:45:40 EDT." <20000410194540.H18251@radicalmedia.com> Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:19:48 -0700 Message-ID: <1251.955412388@zippy.cdrom.com> From: "Jordan K.

Might I'm really glad somebody else noticed this - I've had this problem with my on-board Vibra16X sound (on a Tyan Thunder 100 x86 motherboard, not an Alpha system) for many months now but didn't want to submit a bug report as irreproducible as "sometimes it sprays static."

For what it's worth, emacs 20 works fine, once you disable the unaligned access messages with "uac -p". I might add that this also makes ghostscript usable. I'll just stick with emacs 20, and file away emacs 19 as fubared. -Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-alpha Tue Apr 11 7:26:44 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Received: from blackhelicopters.org (geburah.blackhelicopters.org [209.69.178.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C442137BA54 for ; Tue, 11 Apr 2000 07:26:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mwlucas@blackhelicopters.org) Received: (from mwlucas@localhost) by blackhelicopters.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id KAA05686 for alpha@freebsd.org; Tue, 11 Apr 2000 10:26:39 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from mwlucas) From: Michael Lucas Message-Id: <200004111426.KAA05686@blackhelicopters.org> Subject: Booting install disk To: alpha@freebsd.org Date: Tue, 11 Apr 2000 10:26:39 -0400 (EDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL43 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello, I just found myself the proud owner of an utterly obsolete and completely undocumented Alpha system.

You need to switch it from the ARC firmware to the SRM firmware, and then boot the FreeBSD install disk. Sorry, I got rid of my Multia a while ago and can't remember the commands to do that.

Multia floppy drives are notoriously flaky. You might want to try a couple more times just to see if you get lucky, or you could try some different floppy disks. If you have the 4.0 CD you should be able to boot from that. You can try netbooting. I've heard that this works. :-) I had a SCSI Zip drive, so I dd'ed the 2.88 MB boot floppy image to that and then booted the Multia from the Zip drive.

Does FreeBSD/alpha limit itself currently to 2Gb physmem max, or is this hardware (machine) dependent? If I understand it correctly 2Gb is currently the limit (even if the hardware can do more than 2Gb) but I like to have this confirmed. All of this I want to put into the HARDWARE.TXT so that it can be an uptodate reference in this area.

I had to install the necessary libmach.so and libpthread*.so from Tru64 into /compat/osf1/usr/shlib (along with the osf1 emulators port, of course). I also had to install pdksh, and slightly edit the .java_wrapper script. Ultimately, when trying to run java, I would simply get a "Bad system call" error, and that was that. Apparently our osf1 kernel module doesn't (yet?) support Tru64's pthread system calls, so we're out of luck.

Our osf1 ABI layer doesn't include support for Mach system calls and it probably never will, so most threads apps won't work (there are some exceptions, like Acroread, which work if you play games with the shared libs & slip the non-threaded libs in under the hood).

Yes. It sounds like it was in the idle loop, not in the guts of a device driver. If I had to guess, I'd guess that it was a pci bus related hardware problem triggered by the nic being overloaded. That's just a guess, though. > thanks for your time, > brian > > p.s. - i still have the /usr/src/sys/compile/NIKITA2 directory and the > /usr/src/sys/alpha/conf/NIKITA2 kernel config file untouched > from when i built the kernel... i suppose i could build the kernel > with config -g if it would help. Its usually good to have one laying around. When you run config -g & build a kernel, you end up with 2 kernels -- kernel & kernel.debug. The stripped kernel gets installed & kernel.debug is left in sys/compile/FOO. If you have problems, you can point a kernel debugger at that kernel.debug.

You are very likely going to see a few of my questions popping up on this list. My first question is: is there is any way to run some kind of Java on FreeBSD/Alpha? I need to bootstrap the JDK build with an existing JDK. On x86 we are using the Blackdown Linux JDK to do this. Some form of 1.2 would be best, but I am sure that 1.1 can be whipped into shape.

So, I would like to get some comments here. I am compiling big packages on DU4.0e and Tru64/5.0. For doing so I often need gcc. But, I found that gcc-2.95.2 is not eacy to compile from scratch on DU4.0e and Tru64/5.0. It seems to me that DU's /usr/ccs/lib/cmplrs/cc/ld in the latest dupatch-kit may be broken; binaries are not linked properly. # Stock ld that comes with DU4.0e itself works. Meanwhile, it seems more troublesome to compile gcc-2.95.2 on Tru64/5.0. I wonder if some of you can compile gcc-2.95.2 from scratch---just ./configure and make LANGUAGES="c ... " bootstrap-lean. Thanks for your attention.

I assume you're talking about the Intel IA64, AKA "Merced"? We're supposed to receive hardware on Friday and begin the port in earnest then. We've also spent some time (well, a full day so far) being briefed on this technology by Intel and have most of the materials we need to start, it's just down to getting actual hardware now.

The `sym' driver may be a better choice for you. Actually, he already posted this information -- he's got an AS200/233 with the on-board ncr810: Apr 13 16:16:21 nikita /kernel: AlphaStation 200/400 ("Avanti") Apr 13 16:16:21 nikita /kernel: AlphaStation 200 4/233, 233MHz <...> Apr 13 16:16:21 nikita /kernel: ncr0: port 0x10000-0x100ff mem 0x8200c000-0x8200c0ff irq 11 at device 6.0 on pci0 If its anything like the 810 in my AS200/166 (and I suspect it is), its too old for the sym driver. I think the ncr driver was actually innocent for once & that it was just complaining because the bus disappeared out from under it. This, in turn, was caused by whatever generated the machine check (probably the nic, given the icmp flood).
